This started when Monkey Werx did a talk on B-52s. He gave the talk:

and stated that B-52s have a tail gun. Which they don’t as they were de-installed in the early 1990s. I considered that a pretty big miss.
n.b. - I originally posted that MonkeyWerx stated that there is a tail gunner in the B-52 (they don’t anymore) and they were quad .50 cal guns (that was incorrect - H models (which is what he was showing on the screen) had a 20-mm six-barrel rotary cannon, so on me).

You can see some of the obtuse comments about this in the thread. But no B-52 has tail guns installed any longer. No matter how much some people want to believe otherwise.
I’ve never seen a good description of where his ‘expertise’ comes from. As far as I can tell, he may have worked MX on Special Ops helicopters.

He also says that the TF-33 engines on the B-52H have water injection and that it's called a Stratofortress because it flies in the stratosphere. He also doesn't seem to know that SAC was deactivated in 1992.
He goes on to call T-6 Texans "T-37 Tweets" and T-38s "Law Darts."
He also doesn't recognize the location of Vance AFB.
He does use tacticool words like "exfil" though, so he's got that going for him.
